Project Managment Guide

A self-organizing team is a team that is managed according to what they deliver without management interference as to how delivery is achieved. It is associated with small teams of knowledge workers who are trusted to self-manage. Self-organization tends to function best when teams embrace a particular team culture such as agile. Elements of team culture such as norms, expectations and habits may allow a team to function without need of a hierarchy that places people in charge.
